THE Government has continued its revamp of the way medical services are delivered here, christening a new health group to serve northern Singapore.

Alexandra Health will run the Khoo Teck Puat Hospital (KTPH) in Yishun, slated to open in 2010, and also develop health services in the community for some 700,000 northern residents.

These future community services will include a community hospital and two specialist centres, said its chief executive officer Liak Teng Lit yesterday.
